eIDAS 2.0 just made payments and identity the same problem

This session explores how Strong Customer Authentication, combined credential presentation and selective disclosure are collapsing into a single wallet interaction. How the wallet becomes a universal authn, authz and ID tool that blurs the lines between payments, passwords and identity.
